Django MySQL Optimization

Every Wednesday, engineers from across Buzzvil’s teams get together to share expertise in areas that interest them and discuss new technologies related to their work. These sessions help us deepen what we already know, learn what we don’t, and bring that knowledge back to our work to make it more efficient and creative.

This Buzzvil Tech Weekly session focused on Django MySQL Optimization. We explored everything from profiling the queries being issued to a database to identifying unnecessary queries and optimizing them in practice. Together, we considered how to approach writing database-efficient code in our future development work. See the slides below for more details.
